If I had started and played up to the point I am at now in one of my games without Sunset Invasion activated will it trigger in this game once I activate it later?

HenessyHero posted:That was one hell of a revolt, I was down to -80% at one point. First off, strip them of extraneous titles (oh how you'd get two duchies? *revoke*) Then ransom them off. If you can't ransom them, release the content ones and those that don't especially hate you. Give the rest to the All-Father.

I'm coding in alternative 'Voice of' events for norse pagans, as was mentioned upthread a bit. Voice of Odin and of Loki. The question is, what traits should each of them push you towards? So far, for Odin, I'm thinking it should move you towards brave, wroth, just, kind?, proud, diligent, gregarious. And for Loki, maybe lustful, envious, deceitful, ambitious, cynical?, cruel, arbitrary. Any thoughts?

HenessyHero posted:That was one hell of a revolt, I was down to -80% at one point. Depends. Start by stripping as many titles as you can. If you're Norse, start feeding Odin. If you're Byzantine, head over to the intrigue menu and start slamming the castrate button and if you're lucky you might inherit a shitload of titles in a generation or two. Otherwise just throw them all in the Oubliette and wait for them to die. If, after you've stripped their title, there's someone who still really likes you(take off the revolt bonus because that'll go away) then let them go.

A prophesy event for Odin that gives you a pile of learning for a while would seem appropriate. For Loki, a fitting event would just get you pregnant (regardless of gender).

A special event where you can put out an eye and gain the trait "one-eye" which gives you penalties to martial and sex opinion but bonuses to learning and piety.

She has an affair with someone else and gives birth to a kid, and rather than angrily screaming about how she betrayed you, etc., the voice of Loki tells you it's nonetheless yours despite you not doing anything.

Maybe gaining the scholar trait for Odin? Mystic for Loki? There really should be a Prankster lifestyle trait. I really like this idea, by the way. I think all religions should have it. For Islam the same Christian ones CAN work but it could be Mahummad and Iblis - with decandence related traits as events for both.. Zoroastrianism could have Zoroaster and Ahriman? With Honest being a pertinent trait for Zoroaster. Rejected Fate fucked around with this message at 23:04 on Jul 6, 2013 |

Yeah. I'm finding that the time-consuming part is really writing up the flavor text without having it be too repetitive. I thought about craven for Loki, but from a surface-level overview of the basic myths about him, it doesn't seem like he was particularly unwilling to fight.

Strudel Man posted:Mm. Maybe. Ah right, I forgot that the blinded trait actually has a portrait effect. Dunno, then, maybe a trait like "falconer" except for some tame wolves or ravens or whatever. Or the pre-existing "poet" trait. And I've basically exhausted my limited personal knowledge of Norse mythology there. For Loki, maybe just grant the "Unpredictable Leader" military trait.

Anyway the whole Loki pregnancy thing could work as being in the character's head if the child has some kind of "Figment of Sven's imagination" trait that makes him incapable of holding any positions and also makes him die when Sven dies(or loses Possessed). I don't know if that could be done, though.

Or perhaps alternately, if we really wanted Loki pregnancies, they could be limited to women only, with the naturalistic explanation being that the father is actually some random dude taking advantage of the lady's schizophrenic belief that he's Loki.

Maybe even have an event if that child is the sole heir and still a young child he inherits and you get an event to the effect of "your regent, in an effort to secure power over the realm for a time, has arranged to have an orphaned baby smuggled into the castle. [Svensson loses 'imaginary' trait]".

My character just abandoned both the catholic faith and his antipope and went on a series of Waldesian holy wars to conquer Ireland and part of England. He then converted back to catholicism and used the piety he had gained from kicking catholic rulers out of their lands to excommunicate catholic vassals and kick them out of their lands.

Well, this is odd and annoying. The 'has_law' trigger doesn't appear to work quite right from within the 'allow' scope of job titles. Basically, I was trying to make succession laws determine who could hold council positions, with gender requirements essentially being turned off under true cognatic and flipped under the enatic successions. However, the has_law check is returning false and disallowing everyone from the positions, even if the exact same check returns true in a test decision. Bother.

I can't find where screenshots save but I was making a norse ruler and using the random face generator in game and it generated me Hitler so I decided to make House Hitler and roleplay it accordingly. Except when I started the game now for some reason my guy has a beard even though he had a perfect hitler face at the char creation screen and it makes me sad. I think I'll still go with it though.

The Aztecs have utterly crushed Britain and Ireland and were working over the fractured powers in Spain. During this time frame my liege King of Norway launches a daring raid on Middlesex and captures a shitload of gold leading to a large prestige bump when he returns. When I get the notice for the final Spanish King being sacrificed by the Aztecs I get a call for a blot. First prisoner? The Aztec Emperor. The Norse Gods are strong.

I've been goofing around with a cheatfest of a game (I made an immortal character and gave him a boatload of gold). It's pretty interesting, playing plots out over decades like an immortal would probably do, but that's not the point of the post. One of my character's grandsons, at the age of 18, spontaneously generated the title "the Effeminate". This evidently drove him to become the craziest, most bloodthirsty killer Europe has ever seen.  He's in his mid-50s now and still slaughtering heathens.

I ended up besieging everything around that county, he ended up surrendering around 30% warscore, so that's ok. Zoroastrian aficionados, should I create the Kingdom of Khwarizm, and use that to conquer the remainder, or should I just plug away until I control enough of the Kingdom of Persia? I'm just thinking I should avoid the de jure drift the duchy of Merv would undergo in 50 years, not enough to get Persia 51% controlled.
